God’s Treasure Chest, Part 1
For our study today, we will look at the first seven verses of Colossians 2. The title is “God’s Treasure Chest,” and we will look at a few treasures that can be ours when we live for Jesus. These treasures are not gold, silver, or money, which is usually the first thing that comes to mind when we think about treasures. However, they are every bit as valuable.
The Mystery of Christ in You: Part 2
I am so glad to be with you for part two of “The Mystery of Christ in You.” Take some time to put yourself back to when Colossians was written. How would you share this unusual message of Jesus who died, was resurrected, and ascended into heaven? Would the people of Colosse think you were crazy for talking about God who will live in you? This teaching was new and unusual, and as Paul mentions, it was hidden for a long time. This was a significant change from the Old Testament way of living; this was a considerable shift in thinking, and Paul is doing his best to explain it clearly.
The Mystery of Christ in You: Part 1
This teaching will be spread out over the following two lessons, and our title is taken from verse 27: “The Mystery of Christ in You.” This awesome, preeminent Jesus we just talked about will actually live in you! How is this even possible? What does this mean?
The Preeminent Christ: Part 2
Thank you for joining us. It is good to have you here for another look at the Preeminent Christ. Last time was the first part of the lesson, and today we will finish looking at the three relationships that prove His preeminence.
The Preeminent Christ: Part 1
In this lesson and the next, we will discuss the Preeminent Christ. J Mark will explain this passage by looking at three proofs of His preeminence. The three proofs are relationships: one to His deity, another to creation, and the last to the church. Let’s go to Colossians one and grow our understanding of Jesus.
Fruitful in Every Good Work: Part 2
We are in Colossians 1, and last time, we covered the first two areas: fruitfulness, knowledge, and obedience. Today, we will examine the following two: endurance and gratefulness. This will conclude our study of these verses. Let’s go with Bible teacher J Mark to Colossians for today’s lesson.
Fruitful in Every Good Work: Part 1
Our lesson is from Colossians 1, “Fruitful in Every Good Work. " This teaching covers two lessons. Today, we will hear about the first two areas of fruitfulness, and next time, we will cover two more areas. If you can, turn to Colossians 1 and follow along as we study verses 9-14.
The Truth of the Gospel
It is so good to be with you today. We are honored to be with you and learn from God’s Word together. Today is the first lesson from the book of Colossians. As you probably know, Paul wrote Colossians, and this book loosely follows a pattern we see in his other books.
The Prayer of Faith
Our study from the book of James has been intensely practical. We have much to work on as we live out a “Faith That Works.” James does not suggest that we earn our salvation by works. However, he argues that if salvation is genuine, we will think differently, act differently, and look differently than the unbelievers. He also gives clear instructions on how to do it.
Lift Up Your Head
Today, we will be thinking about encouragement and discouragement. This is a struggle we are familiar with. Life is difficult. We face many challenges, some from the outside and some from within. What should we do when we are discouraged? Where can we find more strength? How can we get out of bed to face another day? These are hard questions we struggle through when life is difficult.
